These pictures are of the many sad memorials erected by friends & family to honor murder and other violence victims in the Washington DC area. These spontaneous, homemade, heartfelt creations are found on streets throughout the region. They are often the only physical tribute to the many slaying victims.

I found this shrine to an unknown victim in the 1300 block of Southern Avenue SE, Washington DC (on the MD side of the street). It is directly across from the front of the United Medical Center hospital.

I have encountered numerous shrines in this block over the years, to both known and unknown people who have lost their lives and passed away in this hospital. Friends and loved ones build memorials nearby, in honor of those they have lost.
